Rewrite this: "Under normal circumstances, when a hardware error occurs, the kernel gets notified via an NMI, MCE or some other method. When the error severity is critical such that the kernel cannot allow itself to do any error recovery due to risk of data corruption, the machine resets. Some implementations trigger the reset directly in hardware and do not even return to the OS. The Boot Error Record Table is a means of reporting such critical errors after the machine reset, i.e. upon the next boot." > + * > + * For more information about BERT, please refer to ACPI Specification > + * version 4.0, section 17.3.1 > + * > + * This file is licensed under GPLv2. > + * > + */ > + > +#include <linux/kernel.h> > +#include <linux/module.h> > +#include <linux/init.h> > +#include <linux/acpi.h> > +#include <linux/io.h> > + > +#include "apei-internal.h" Btw, while you're at it, this header has: /* * apei-internal.h - ACPI Platform Error Interface internal * definations. */ please fix "definations" to "definitions" in your next submission. > + > +#undef pr_fmt > +#define pr_fmt(fmt) "BERT: " fmt > + > +static int bert_disable; > + > +static void __init bert_print_all(struct acpi_bert_region *region, > + unsigned int region_len) > +{ > + /* > + * We use cper_estatus_* which uses struct acpi_hest_generic_status, > + * struct acpi_hest_generic_status and acpi_bert_region are the same > + * (Generic Error Status Block), so we declare the "estatus" here. > + */ No need for that comment. > + struct acpi_hest_generic_status *estatus = > + (struct acpi_hest_generic_status *)region; > + int remain = region_len; > + u32 estatus_len; > + > + /* The records have been polled*/ No need for that comment. > + if (!estatus->block_status) > + return; > + > + while (remain > sizeof(struct acpi_bert_region)) { > + /* > + * Test Generic Error Status Block first, > + * if the data(Offset, Length) is invalid, we just return, > + * because we can't trust the length data from this block. > + */ What's with the superfluous comments?

BERT: table invalid. looks better to me. TBH, I'm not sure we want to use that FW_BUG marker in this file at all. I mean, AFAIR, it was added at the time with the hope that people report those errors to BIOS vendors and they fix their crap.
